Old Crow Smokehouse

Taking up two storefronts and 10,500 square feet of restaurant space that formerly housed Chen’s, this Lakeview barbecue restaurant serves up American and Asian barbecue from the kitchen of executive chef Tony Scruggs (known best by his stint on “MasterChef”). Take your pick from the many offerings, including oysters on the half shell, crow’s nest poutine, baby back ribs, combo platters, sandwiches, salads and American barbecue favorites like brisket, as well as Asian barbecue specialties like Chinese lamb, and Korean short ribs. A slew of sides like mac ‘n cheese, cornbread, baked beans and more round out the down home meal. Whiskeys and moonshine are the main focus of the beverage program.

Best of all: They are an avid supporter of the Ohio State Alumni Club of Chicago! Check them out for an awesome gameday atmosphere, see our members for raffles and drawings, and take advantage of their awesome specials!
